Product Overview
Product Description
The Titon® Trimbox NO Filter® reduces Nitrogen Dioxide (NO) which is prominently produced by exhaust gases from
Diesel engines. Due to this pollution arising in cities and urban areas there is a need to implement mitigation measures to
improve the indoor air quality (IAQ). The Titon® Trimbox NO® Filter is an eective means of reducing high NO levels down
to an acceptable level of 40µg/m3 as a mean annual concentration level.
The units are fully foam insulated. This reduces duct bound noise and thermal transmission and helps to avoid
condensation build up. Where the unit is installed in very cold spaces or if the outside air is below -5°C then a custom
designed removable insulation jacket is available from Titon® see Accessories and Spare Parts List.

Installation
Trimbox NO Filter®
Read and observe the guidance & safety notices listed in Warnings, Safety information and Guidance .
The Trimbox Filter® is designed to be mounted in any orientation.
The mounting surface substrate must be suciently strong to support the unit. Ensure there is sucient access around the NO unit for future maintenance.Do not ‘box-in’ the unit making access to the unit dicult for maintenance and repair.
Mounting
1. Mark positions of the mounting holes onto the mounting surface using dimensions as shown.
2. Prepare the mounting surface in the positions specied for four Ø8mm xings. Fixings must be suitable for the
mounting surface substrate and the weight of the unit. Fixings are not supplied due to the variation in materials. For
advice on suitable xings contact your local specialized xings dealer.
3. Mount the unit using selected xings.

Wall Mounting (Vertical Only) Ducting Behind Unit
1. Attach the mounting brackets to the unit using M8 xings provided.
2. Mark positions of mounting holes onto wall using dimensions as shown.
3. Prepare the wall in the positions specied for eight Ø6mm xings at the marked positions. Fixings must be suitable
for the mounting surface substrate and the weight of the unit. Fixings are not supplied due to the variation in
materials. For advice on suitable xings contact your local specialized xings dealer.
4. When tting screws position the head leaving between 2mm and 4mm gap between wall and underside of head, see
illustration.
5. Guide slots in mounting bracket over xing screw heads. Lower the unit so that the xing comes to rest in the slots in
the mounting brackets ensuring that all xings heads are within the slots.
6. Connect ducting in the method shown opposite.

Ducting Connection
Airow Direction
The Trimbox Filter® can be supplied with or without a prelter installed.The air to be ltered must pass though a prelter
before the active carbon lters, therefore if the Trimbox Filter® is supplied without a prelter it is very important that it is
tted so air supplied to the Trimbox Filter
Ducting Connection
The Trimbox Filter® has labels with icons indicating the airow IN and airow OUT ports
IN
This label denes that the port at this end of the unit must have airow going into the unit.
OUT
This label denes that the port at this end of the unit must have airow leaving the unit.

Maintenance
Filter Replacement
Prelters should be replaced at least annually, or more regularly dependent on environmental conditions. To acertain if
the Active Carbon Filters require changing Titon recomend using the NO Testing Kit or the Carbon Life Prediction Service.
Prelter
Prelter, if installed, can be changed by the householder. Replacing the prelter for a higher grade (G4 to F7) will increase
the system resistance and may require re-comissioning to maintain the design airow rates
Active Carbon Filters
Changing of Active Carbon Filters should be carried out by experienced or trained personnel in accordance with safety
requirements as dened by the “Control of Substances Hazardous to Health" (COSHH) Regulations. i.e. Someone who fully
understands the design, operation and implications of the product and its use.
NO Testing Kit
A NO Testing Kit is available from Titon® that can be used to determine the
levels of NO within the property. The testing kit requires a minimum of 8
hours of exposure to the air and during this time the property must be sealed
from the outside air meaning all doors/window/vents closed and only the
ventilation system containing the NO lter to be in use. This will give an
accurate result for the performance of the NO lter. If the levels of NO are
greater than 40µg/m then the lter should replaced.
The 8hr exposure test kit consists of a plastic container with a removable
black plastic cap. If the testing kit is not to be used immediately after receipt
then it must be stored in a sealed polyethylene bag or similar and kept in a
refrigerator.
Instructions for use:
1. Apply sample identier that comes with the kit to the back of the sampler.
2. Fix the sampler to a vertical surface using adhesive tape, Blu-tack® or similar.
3. Remove the black cap and store in a safe place. There is a minimum of 8 hours of exposure and can be exposed up to
72 hours. At the end of the exposure period, replace cap and label the sample with the barcode label provided.
4. Ax the corresponding number label to the exposure sheet.
The testing kit should be returned within 2 weeks and must be stored in a refrigerator until dispatch.
Carbon Life Prediction Service
If requested Titon® can provide a Carbon Life Prediction Service. Part used lters can be sent to Titon® whereby they are
tested to determine the life expectancy of the carbon cells in use. If the lters are likely to have been exposed to hazardous
contaminants then Titon® must be informed of this. Please contact Titon® for more information.

How to Change Filters
1. Remove Front Cover using 3mm Hex Key provided;
2. For Pre-Filter slide out lter from casing using handle attached to lter;
3. For Active Carbon Filters unscrew M5 screws using 3mm Hex Key on the top mounting rails as shown, and slide out
lter from casing. Only perform this action one lter at a time as lters may drop when mounted in a ceiling void;
4. Replace Active Carbon lters one at a time. Slide lter into casing and fully screw down the M5 screw in lter rail, do
not over tighten.
5. Replace Pre-Filter by sliding back into casing. Ensure the airow direction corresponds with
the direction arrow on lter;
Disposal of Filters
The carbon within the lters are impregnated with chemicals and therefore has to be treated as specialist waste. The
disposal of the lters must be carried out by a specialist waste disposal company and not by the inhabitant of the property.
DO 5463 Iss 01
The Active Carbon Filters are Dangerous for the Environment.
Titon® do not oer a waste disposal service and therefore cannot accept lters for disposal, but can recommend the
following company:

Removable Insulation Jacket
Titon® can provided a custom designed removable
insulation jacket for the Trimbox NO Filter® which
will provide 30mm of insulation material with thermal
conductivity of 0.04W/(m.K). This jacket needs to be
wrapped around the unit before mounting to a wall or
ceiling. The unit must be oset from the wall or ceiling by
a minimum of 30mm for space required for the insulation
material. The method of osetting the unit must be able
to support the weight of the unit. The insulation jacket
can be opened by means of hook and loop fasteners on
aps at the front and this will give access to the lters for
inspection and replacement.
